Chapter 648 Killing the Demon

Seeing that Jiang Li had not shown up for a long time, Hu Xueji became angry and embarrassed, and the tassels at her temples trembled slightly with anger.

She suppressed her anger and ordered her servants to step forward and speak.

The servant obeyed the order and hurried to the courtyard gate. He shouted three times, but the courtyard remained quiet, without the slightest sound.

Hu Xueji's patience finally ran out, and she shouted angrily, "What an arrogant brat! How dare you put on airs with me!"

A pale purple demonic power gathered at her fingertips, and she gave the order again, "Charge in and drag them out!"

The servants, who could no longer contain themselves, immediately bared their fangs and claws upon hearing this, and swarmed forward, stepping on the scattered petals.

The lead servant stretched out his sharp claws and lunged at the wooden door of the courtyard.

The moment they touched the door frame, the entire courtyard was suddenly illuminated by a dazzling seven-star light, and a sharp sword light burst forth from the ground, spreading out like a spider web and instantly enveloping the entire courtyard.

"Oh no! It's a demon-slaying formation!"

A well-informed servant exclaimed in surprise, trying to retreat, but it was too late.

Suddenly, the Seven Star Array Eyes burst forth with blinding light, and countless light blades containing the power to slay demons appeared out of thin air, sweeping towards the demon race like a torrential rain.

Those servants dressed in cloud-patterned brocade robes were not highly skilled to begin with, and were powerless to resist the power of the Seven Star Demon-Slaying Formation. Wherever the sword light passed, the brocade robes shattered, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and screams rose and fell.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of servants lay dead in pools of blood.

Hu Xueji's pupils suddenly contracted.

The outer perimeter is a spirit-locking maze set up by the Demon Emperor himself. Why does that little girl still have the strength to set up such a powerful sword formation?

The disciples of major sects are indeed not to be underestimated!

She gritted her teeth and shouted, "Get them! Smash this house!"

Twenty-eight strongmen simultaneously raised heavy hammers and smashed them against the courtyard wall, attempting to break the formation by brute force.

But as soon as the hammer touched the array wall, it was blasted away by a powerful rebound force. The warriors' hands were split open, blood flowed freely, and many were sent flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground and losing consciousness on the spot.

The Seven Star Demon-Slaying Formation is specifically designed to counter demons; the stronger the attack, the greater the rebound force.

In an instant, the sword light intensified, sweeping across the battlefield with overwhelming force!

The twelve fairies holding flower baskets hurriedly summoned their natal magical artifacts to defend themselves, but they were struck by the chilling sword energy. Their artifacts shattered, their cultivation was damaged, and they staggered to the ground, unable to get up.

Hu Xueji retreated several steps, barely avoiding a blade of light that shot towards her face.

She never expected that this formation would be so dangerous, growing stronger the stronger it encountered.

Although she was a Nascent Soul demon, the fox clan specialized in illusion and seduction techniques and was not good at fighting. How could she possibly defeat the Seven Star Demon-Slaying Formation set up by Xie Chang'an, a Nascent Soul sword cultivator?

"Withdraw! Quickly withdraw!"

Hu Xueji gritted her teeth and gave the order. At this moment, she had lost her previous arrogance and was filled with shock, anger and fear.

Upon hearing this, the surviving servants felt as if they had been granted a pardon and fled towards the edge of the battle lines with all their might.

After the demons fled the range of the formation in a sorry state, the bright sword light slowly dissipated, and the courtyard returned to peace, leaving only a mess on the ground.

The air was thick with the stench of blood, mingling with the fragrance of the fallen petals, creating an eerie and pungent smell.

Hu Xueji stood outside the formation, looking at the tragic scene before her, trembling with anger, but dared not take another step forward.

She stared intently at the tightly closed courtyard gate, her eyes surging with murderous intent and resentment: "You little bitch! How dare you kill the envoy of the Demon Emperor's Palace! I will remember this grudge! When I report back to the Demon Emperor, I will make you wish you were dead!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she angrily flung her sleeves and turned away in a disheveled manner, her whole body filled with hostility.

After a while, a bright green vine trembled and stretched out from the "fish tank" in front of the main house.

The Rejuvenating Vine poked its head out halfway, looking at the remains of the demon corpse scattered on the ground outside the courtyard, and couldn't help but feel a deep sense of fear.

The sword formation that Your Majesty has set up is like a meat grinder, it's terrifying!

Hu Xueji was unaware that the harsh words she uttered outside were merely a ploy to seduce the blind man. Jiang Li was not there at the time, leaving only Hui Chunteng to look after the house.

The Seven Star Demon-Slaying Formation unleashed its power, terrifying the Rejuvenating Vine so much that it hid inside the Sumeru Mustard Seed Bottle, too afraid to come out.

Where did Jiang Li go?

Of course, she went with Xie Chang'an and Taixu to the Cangmang Demon Plains to pick up her newly made friends.

The little snow wolf and the little black bear happily boarded their new friend's "flying artifact".

Taixu renovated the small space, decorating the front yard with a profusion of flowers, which perfectly matched Jiang Li's gaudy dress.

"Sister, you actually have a flying artifact with such a large space!"

"Your family must be very rich!"

The two little ones looked around curiously, praising the sights.

Xie Chang'an diligently fulfilled his duty as a "guard," presenting fruits and snacks while standing silently to the side.

"Don't be shy, sister, eat whatever you like!"

Jiang Li, looking every bit the pampered young lady, lay down on the soft couch and said lazily.

The little snow wolf and the little black bear sat happily at the table, fruit in their left hand and pastries in their right, enjoying their meal immensely.

Sister Lingluan said that this was also brought from the human race, and human food is just so delicious!

After emerging from the void, Xie Chang'an said through the Heart-to-Heart Pact, "Little Fox, wait a moment, I'll go out and clean up the battlefield."

Jiang Li snorted: "The betrothal party has come?"

"Yes. I estimate it won't be long before we're surrounded."

Those who came to propose marriage were slaughtered without exception, so the Demon Emperor would not let it go.

"Don't worry, we have hostages now!" Jiang Li chuckled.

She was a little disappointed that two hostages were not enough; she wished she could have lured a few more babies.

Although he is a demon from the vast demon plains, he is still a noble, and the little brat is very precious.

Xie Chang'an raised an eyebrow slightly and smiled, "My wife is very thoughtful; I am ashamed of my own in comparison."

Jiang Li blushed and stomped her foot, saying, "Who's your wife? If you keep talking nonsense, I'm not going to talk to you anymore!"

Xie Chang'an chuckled lightly, then flashed out of the space and landed in the garden.

Still shaken, Huichun Teng poked her head out. Seeing that it was Xie Chang'an, she cried out, "Your Majesty, you've finally returned!"

Xie Chang'an asked gently, "Xiao Teng, are you alright?"

Rejuvenating Ivy shook her head vigorously, "Little Ivy is fine!"

"You've worked hard, Xiao Teng, go back to the Dragon Palace now."

As if granted a pardon, the Rejuvenating Ivy plunged into the fish tank and flew back to the Dragon Palace.

Xie Chang'an frowned as he looked at the bloodstains and the remains of demon corpses scattered all over the courtyard.

This courtyard was his carefully built bridal chamber; how could it be tainted by demon blood?

His eyes narrowed slightly, and with a thought, a flash of sword light appeared, its bright radiance sweeping across the entire courtyard.

The remains of the demon corpses scattered on the ground were instantly melted away, and even the scattered fragments of weapons were swept into the sword light.

In just a few breaths, the sword light subsided, and the once blood-soaked and chaotic courtyard returned to its clean state.

The bluestone path was as smooth as new, the grass and trees were lush, and the flowers were fragrant. It was as if the battle of formations and the corpses lying everywhere were just a dream.
